AI Inventory Counts with Drones and Computer Vision Quiz

Answers and explanations appear as you take the quiz.

1. A company runs its own drone count at year end. How should the auditor treat it?
   • As management's count, whose process the auditor evaluates while still making independent test counts
   • As final audit evidence that needs no further work
   • As irrelevant, because only manual counts are allowed
   • As a substitute for the entire inventory audit
2. A drone clearly reads the barcode on a shrink-wrapped pallet. What does the read NOT establish?
   • Which SKU the label identifies
   • Which rack location was scanned
   • How many units are actually inside the pallet
   • That a label was present
3. For a quarry stockpile survey, which assumption can move the tonnage result more than the imaging error?
   • The drone's battery capacity
   • The time of day of the flight
   • The color of the aggregate
   • The bulk density used to convert volume to tons
4. Which standards generally require auditor attendance at physical counts when inventory is material and attendance is practicable?
   • AS 1215 and ISA 230
   • AS 2510 and ISA 501
   • AS 2201 and ISA 315
   • AS 2401 and ISA 240
5. Before a barcode read from a warehouse image means anything, what must the system establish?
   • Which rack location the image corresponds to
   • The name of the drone pilot
   • The unit cost of the item
   • The ambient temperature
6. Why should accuracy metrics for a drone scanning system be reported separately rather than as one number?
   • Regulators require at least five metrics
   • The read rate, the location match rate and empty-slot classification errors fail in different ways
   • A single number is always higher
   • Vendors cannot calculate a combined metric
7. Which audit concern is the guide clear that images usually cannot address?
   • Whether a rack location is occupied
   • The SKU printed on a label
   • Obsolescence, damage or consigned goods owned by others
   • The shape of an outdoor pile
8. In a common source of stockpile volume error, which part of the 3D model is defined wrongly?
   • The drone's flight altitude label
   • The file format of the point cloud
   • The software license date
   • The base surface or toe line under the pile
